PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Leopold Strauss (ranked 1933 p4p, 5224 weight class) and Ali Maskhadov (ranked 140 p4p, 274 weight class). Maskhadov has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. Ali Maskhadov will no doubt be trying to keep this one on the feet, where he has a distinct advantage.
